    impressive review. I enjoyed watching the 120fps slow motion clips, full zoom video examples and image stabilization. It really shows the amazing capabilities of this camera.

    9:39 I've done a lot of work in the high framerate mode - the zebra and even the histogram turn off, so you can't use them to help with mitigating the horrible auto exposure. Depends on the conditions, but my advice is to use the "natural" color profile and then "eyeball" it and dial the general exposure as low as you need to in order to preserve details in highlights, then readjust to bring out the shadows a little bit. Couldn't get any info about what settings are prioritised in this mode (shutter, aperture, ISO), but I assume ISO is lowered first and increased only if the aperture is wide open and the shutter is set to 180 degrees. All of this takes time, so plan accordingly. IS turns off in slowmo, so a relatovely heavy tripod with a fluid head and a steady hand are necessary if you'll want to pan.

    This was taken in 2014, we are now in 2017. Do you still think that the FZ 1000 is not good for photos??? It is a huge compliment to the FZ 1000 to be compared with the GH4. I am still deciding. .... Thank you for your great videos.

    I bought an FZ 1000 two weeks ago, September 2024, for $250. It's a great camera, and even better when I learn how to get more out of it. How do I enable the i zoom function? In the menu I can't highlight it. Thanks for your video.

  • @robertbowling5309
    @robertbowling5309 10 лет назад

    Thank you Max, great series of video's. I see you compared it to the GH4 which is a lot more expensive. How about compared to the Rebel series or D5300 series camera's? This sensor IS smaller, but on DPREVIEW when doing side-by-side comparisons in stills, FZ1000 holds it's own, even against my D7000! I don't own this FZ1000 camera yet, I'm waiting for CP+ next week. But three features I like that you did not mention are: 1) 12fps full 20mp shooting. Most DSLR's can't touch that. 2) Silent mode with electronic shutter, NO click! I love this for candid photos, documentary work, or inside churches, museums, etc. 3) Can pull 8mp stills off of the 4k video at 30fps, no buffer to worry about! Many of my clients want images for websites and this will do just fine when "just the exact right moment" is needed. For example: Your baptism shoot, I would do that in 4k and have both awesome video AND "decent" (I hope you agree) still images, too! Bob at DigitalMission dot US. Thanks again!

    • @MaksimYuryev
      @MaksimYuryev  10 лет назад

      Hi Robert, Those are great points you made. Against the D7000 and rebel cameras this one (as far as image quality) will do well. I'm not sure compared to D5300 as that has the same sony sensor that is in the D7100 (very good sensor). One limitation of this camera that may not affect you is having the built in lens. For photos I like to be able to get shallow dept of field shots and with a 1" sensor and F2.8-F4 lens its really hard to do unless you zoom in to 200+. Having the FZ1K at 50mm equiv (lets say its still at F2.8 there which it may not be) and shooting at 50mm equiv on your d7000 F2.8 your results would be much different. The D7000 will be much shallow DOF. To have the DOF match between the cameras you'd have to set your D7000 somewhere around F5.6-F8 (estimate) and the FZ1000K at 2.8. I guess it depends on what you'd be shooting. If your shooting landscapes that could be a benefit for you.
      You can definitely pull great still from 4k video but one issue you run into in shutter speed. For proper looking video you want your shutter speed to be double your frame rate (so 1/60th for 30FPS) The video will look good but if your subject is moving when you pull the frame it will be blurred. If you change your shutter to 1/125 or higher the video will have a stuttery look but the images pulled from 4k will be sharp. If you are interested in the camera I'd say pick it up somewhere with a good return policy, (Amazon & B&H are fantastic and it supports my channel) and if it doesn't work for your needs you can return it. If you feel like checking it out here's the last wedding photo I shot (I stopped doing them currently) with the D7100 so same sensor as D5300. yourstorybymax.com/blog/portfolio_page/andrey-veronica-camden-ranch-wedding-venue/

    I want to buy a Panasonic bridge camera and I want to make a choice between the FZ300 or the FZ1000 or the FZ1000 mark2. I mainly want to use it for macro and sometimes for landscape and birds. Is there a big difference in photo quality in normal light? What does the crop factor of 2.7 mean for the Fz1000 mark2? Which one can give you a nice blurry background in macro?

    Hi Max, thanks for the review. I'm trying to find out if the FZ1000 shows up as a webcam when connected to USB on a computer? I've searched around but can't find a clear answer. I'm looking for this functionality as I need a simple workflow for one-person production, where I can record straight onto the Mac without having to remove cards, import footage, etc. I don't want to use a wide-angle webcam as the image isn't suitable for my needs. Many thanks.

  • @PhilippJansen
    @PhilippJansen 10 лет назад

    Thanks for this comparison. Some hints:
    - the GH4 (in comparison to the fz1000) is weather-sealed and dust-proof
    - the GH4 has a touch screen, the fz doesn't
    - the lighting, white balance or aperture seems to change during your shots. Or maybe it's caused by your NLE using color correction.

    • @MaksimYuryev
      @MaksimYuryev  10 лет назад

      Thanks! some of these were in auto shooting mode that probably why

    • @PhilippJansen
      @PhilippJansen 10 лет назад

      Did you experience any differences between both cameras concerning auto focus? The Gh4 is pretty slow and hunts a lot to get the focus right in UHD and cinema 4k.
      1080 altough seems just fine. How about the FZ1000: Does it a have a quicker auto focus then the Gh4?

    • @MaksimYuryev
      @MaksimYuryev  10 лет назад

      I have never used any kind of autofocus with the GH4 as I've never used native lenses with the camera only Nikon and Canon lenses using metabones speedboosters. I know the GH4 is not reliable with autofocus and the Fz1000 uses the same focus system (as far as I've read) as the GH4 so I would say it's Equality not reliable. If you want something with good autofocus I would keep my eye on the Samsung NX1, by the specs it's listed as using phase detection for autofocus during video and if that's the case it should be very good like the 70D.

    Even the 120fps shots are much sharper and more noiseless than my Pen E-PL5 at 30 fps. This camera is amazing. Does it has an input for remote? Is it able to switch between 30, 25 and 24 fps. The EU version of this camera will get 25p mode.

    I have been panicking this weekend, I've considered Canom M50, Lumix G7, Lumix GH4, Sony a6000, a6300, a6500. And I've been shooting with a couple Canon XC15s for this weekend, and this camera reminds me of the XC15 (which I love) a lot.

  • @RideWithRahulOfficial
    @RideWithRahulOfficial 8 лет назад

    I will tell you my requirements. And Could you please suggest me the camera?
    I am a video maker of action videos, motorcycles, high speed flyby, I really love the ability to go 120 FPS.
    I don't need 4K right now but maybe a few years down the line it might become useful.
    I really love to go out there and vlog with the in built stabilization is amazing for me...
    I don't care much about stills, what this camera does it definitely enough.
    I do like the sharpness of a prime lens and I understand that I will lose that feature in this, so product reviews will be tough.
    So here is what I want,
    Action clips slo mo, indoor vlogs with good light setup, outdoor vlogs handheld and in all situations, a bit of product review where I need detailed video shots, macro and blurring the background...
    Can I do all of this from one camera?
    Finally, if the lens gets damaged, what do I do? Can it be replaced at the service center at least with another same lens?

    • @RideWithRahulOfficial
      @RideWithRahulOfficial 8 лет назад

      Any other camera which can do all this? And maybe do better?

    • @MaksimYuryev
      @MaksimYuryev  8 лет назад

      I think the RX100mk4 would be better for you. Flip up screen for vlogging, 120FPS is better than this, also has higher frame rates. The zoom range is limited though, so if you need to zoom in a ton that could be a problem, but overall the RX100mk4 is a much better vlogging camera. amzn.to/2c8L9PB .

    • @RideWithRahulOfficial
      @RideWithRahulOfficial 8 лет назад

      I just watched 4 reviews of RX100 MK4,
      Here are the things I don't like..
      No external mic support
      5 mins of 4K only?
      It does get 1080 240 frames per seconds and you are right the quality is better, but can it do that for a long period of time? (This is my main doubt cause my shots are much longer- say 3 mins or so) I cut in post.
      Finally no 5 axis stabilization like this? Or does it have 5 axis stabilization? (another great concern because I hate shaky footage)

  • @stefpix
    @stefpix 6 лет назад

    great overview. Have you tried any Sony RX10m3 or m4? I have the RX10m3 and it is heavy and AF misses a lot at telephoto above 200mm. It is also expensive and I'd be worried to take it on a boat or kayak (even if in a drybag). It is slow to start up. Now the Lumix FZ1000 can be had under 600 dollars and I wonder if I could get it as every day take with me camera. I shoot photo gigs with A6300 and A7ii with primes but it is nice to have an all in one with telephoto to shoot some context and details images. What is you opinion? FZ2000 is better weather sealed, but also larger and a lot more expensive.

    I'm waiting for the FZ1000 to be delivered. I watched all of your video including the one about SD cards for GH4. Really helpful advice for low budget enthusiast. I guess the same applies for the FZ1000? I was wondering how much 4k footage do you manage to record with a 64GB card? And also how much of 1080p at different FPS? Tnx in advance. Keep up the work!

  • @TCKe
    @TCKe 8 лет назад

    Yeah its nice i am thinking of getting one as B-cam mostly because image stabilisation. But now there is the FZ300 as well... With fixed 2.8 aperture, weather sealing and touch screen for a lower price. Did you try that out also? I know smaller sensor but does it really matter on this type of camera....

    • @personaltrainersg
      @personaltrainersg 8 лет назад

      The fz300 is terrible. The picture quality is worse than a mid-high end smartphone in 2016-17. And its 1080p video is utter crap. Only usable at 4k. FZ1000 is VASTLY better and totally worth any price difference.

    Hi Max! Im new to photographing and video shooting, im looking for a good all around camera for around 6-700 dollars. I thing i will mostly shoot nature and some times time lapses. Im intrested in the FZ1000 but im not sure if thats the best choice. What do you think? Regards

    • @MaksimYuryev
      @MaksimYuryev  8 лет назад +1

      In that price range this is going to be your best bet. You won't get as good of results compared to a higher end DSLR with good lenses but that would be in the $3000-$5000 price range. This will be a great start and if you find you enjoy it and the gear is the biggest limit not your skills, you can step up later. amzn.to/2in3KNo this is slightly ($97) over your budget, but if you can go for it do. Don't save a few hunder and go with a different power zoom, they have MUCH smaller sensors the image quality will be noticeably worse. amzn.to/2in3KNo

  • @adambrown2346

    whats the auto focus like I have the sony RX10 mark 2 and I love the auto focus on it, I have a G7 and the auto focus is grab for vlogging. I was going to sell my Sony RX10 and but I don't want the auto focus to suffer? I prefer Panasonic since owning the G7 just its lacking auto focus.

  • @amosjsoma
    @amosjsoma 9 лет назад

    I really appreciate your excellent review videos. They are frank, honest and among the best on the web. I'm giving up my Canon 60d and trying to decide between the GX7, Sony a6000 and this camera. I'm not a pro and video is not a high priority for me. I do, however, like the extended zoom range in 4K mode and the fact that I can extract 8 megapixel stills from 4K video. This could be very handy in nature photography when you often can't get very close to the subject.
    I like to do nature close up, insects, flowers, etc., and wildlife and have always thought I needed interchangeable lenses but now, this camera makes me wonder why.
    I haven't made up my mind yet but your videos are helping.
    Thanks and keep them coming.

    Hi Max, greetings from a fellow Spokanite.
    I currently use an EOS 5D Mk2 with 25-104 and 300mm zoom lenses. We're going vacationing in Glacier Nat. Park this summer and I want to buy a single-lens camera and 4k video is a plus. Do you still think the FZ1000 is a contender?
    Obviously my 5D Mk2 will give better results on stills when I have time to swap lenses and mount the flash, but for casual vacation (and video) use I'm considering the FZ1000.
    Thanks,

    • @MaksimYuryev

    Many thanks for making this video - I was given my FZ1000 but had not thought much about the video capacity. I will try using it for wildlife video. I'm guessing the zoom will be good for this? I live in Africa and the light here is pretty bright most of the time, so the low light downsides should be less of a problem for me? So far I am loving it - a huge improvement on what I had!

    However, I am torn between getting the FZ1000 and LX100 and was just wondering what you would personally get/prefer?
    Cheers!

      @MaksimYuryev  9 лет назад

      Rupesh Patel Hi Rupesh! If you don't need the very long zoom lens, or the flip out screen of the Fz1K I'd get the LX100 for sure! It is slightly better in low light and has a faster lens, but is limited on the zoom range.

    Can this be connected to a computer and used as a webcam? How fast is the zoom - is it manual and responsive? Can you recorded only through the viewfinder and not using the miniscreen? Thanks man, your videos rule.

    • @MaksimYuryev
      @MaksimYuryev  10 лет назад

      Don't know about webcam as I've never needed that. Zoom is decent but its not manual its fly by wire like most new lenses, responsive not as good as a manual lens. Yes you can record only through viewfinder.

    hey man I want to do wildlife films for example following an elephant herd and taking 4k videos while keeping a safe distance. Would this be the best camera for me or is there another? I just don't want to carry extra lens rather use that space for camping gear. I looked at the lumix100 but the distance range probably wont work and the gh4 needs extra lenses which will be quite expensive. Any recommendations or would this be the best camera?

    • @MaksimYuryev
      @MaksimYuryev  9 лет назад +1

      +Mart Muru You want to get a fast lens, Prime lenses are best options for low light. If you are only buying 1 lens than this one: amzn.to/1LVlaZ4 If you can buy two than this one amzn.to/1Mden8R and this one amzn.to/1MdenFQ . if you need to have a zoom buy one of these, amzn.to/1LVlnvh .

    • @MaksimYuryev
      @MaksimYuryev  9 лет назад

      Jepster Togle Thanks for subbing! The FZ-1000 is about 1.5-2 hours of continuous shooting per battery which is typical for most cameras (NX1-5D3-7D,D810) ect. Good thing is third party batteries are fairly cheap amzn.to/1IqDsAa

    • @MaksimYuryev
      @MaksimYuryev  9 лет назад

      Jepster Togle Well the FZ1000 does have a 29.99 recording limit. The only DSLR style cameras that don't have a limit at all are the GH4 and GH3. amzn.to/1y5UgJ9

There will be times when I'll use the 4K video mode, not for the video but to catch stills which would be otherwise difficult. I might want to speed up the shutter for a sharper image.

    Hi Max, excellent video thankyou, I have a question I'm keen to hear your response, or anyone elses for that matter
    I'm a Kiwi living in OZ who has an 8 year old Sony Alpha A300 DSLR with Tamron 18mm-200mm Multi Zoom lens in excellent condition. I'm just wondering as I'm mega keen on this Panasonic FZ1000, if I was to upgrade my Sony Alpha A300 to a New Sony Alpha A58 SLT Translucent Mirror DSLR using my original Tamron Lens, would I get better results over buying the Panasonic FZ1000? I'm keen on an all in one as I' a lazy photographer who likes high quality image results. My 8 year old Sony A300 has 10.2MP APSC sensor, would it be a lot worse than going to a 20MP 1 inch non APSC sensor as in the Panasonic FZ1000?
    I'm worried if I buy a new Sony A58 and it is let down by my 8 year old Tamron 18-200 (28-300mm) lens, would I get better results with the new Panasonic FZ1000 with combined lens? I assume the quality and amount of lens elements are pretty good in the Panasonic and should be comparable to my Tamron for photo quality?
    Also do you think the DSLT is a gimmick compared to a traditional DSLR mirror camera?
    So much choice today it's even confusing for a tech geek such as my self, I've viwed dozens of videos and reviews, yours is among the best I've seen, thanks and keep up the high quality work, cheers Steven from Down Under

  • @josephpeel9533
    @josephpeel9533 10 лет назад

    Another great review, thanks! I am looking for a camera with this type of length zoom or bigger, so probably looking at bridge cameras, and this from what I have read is going to out perform any other bridge camera on the market. If I were to look at buying a DSLR and then something like a 28-300 lens, then that is going to push the budget too much, and I am not sure if I would gain much more quality with stills? One thing I would like for an upcoming trip is to try and catch the northern lights in lapland. Not sure if this could handle photos of them, or if recording them on 4k and then take stills is the way forward. Lots to think about!
    One question I can't seem to find info about this camera is the exposure compensation option. The RX10 has a dedicated dial for this. I was wondering when taking stills in fully auto mode if you can adjust exposure compensation, and if you have to bring this up on the menu by setting one of the fn buttons, and then if you can use the dial on the top right of the back of the camera? Thanks!

    • @MaksimYuryev
      @MaksimYuryev  10 лет назад

      Hi Joseph! I think you will be better off with this camera than using a dslr with a 28-300 because most lenses for dslr with that range wont have that great of IQ. I think it will do a great job for your trip! As far exposure comp i'm not quite sure if it has it you may be able to map it to a button. I'm not using GH4's or else I would check for you :)

    • @josephpeel9533
      @josephpeel9533 10 лет назад +1

      Max Yuryev Hi Max, thanks again for your info! My query about the exposure compensation which I should have probably said, was aimed at the FZ1000 which is the camera I am thinking of getting, not the GH4. I found the manual online, and it looks like the back dial can be used for exposure compensation, but only if the zoom rocker switch is set for compensation, will you be able to see the ex comp reading.
      One final thing I have to check after reading the manual and speaking with their support staff. On 6 of the night scence options the manual states: 'The shutter may remain closed after taking the picture. This is due to signal processing and is not a malfunction.'
      The support staff member I spoke to said this might or might not happen, and if it did, I would need to turn the camera off and back on again, and they say this is not a malfunction problem....

    • @SharonHaber66
      @SharonHaber66 10 лет назад +1

      Joseph Peel " catch the northern lights in lapland. Not sure if this could handle photos of them,".
      Sure. I did it with FZ200. Shoot the starry sky and foreground in moonless night. It took 60 seconds with 400 iso. You should set to manual mode and do some experiments with different exposures and iso. And you will need a tripod.
      "The shutter may remain closed after taking the picture. This is due to signal processing and is not a malfunction."
      That's the case. When I shoot long exposure with FZ200 and Olympus OMD E-5 In both cameras the shutter is closed after the exposure time for the same time length as the exposure. If it was 30s, it will be closed 30s. And so for 60 seconds (which is the maximum possible). After this you see the image on the screen.

    I'm sold. I need a replacement for my FZ200 which was an awesome camera but wore out. The fact that this camera is almost the same size as my T3i is the clincher. You seem to make that sound like a negative, but I hate cameras that are so small you can't even hold them correctly. And the 1080p at 120 fps is awesome. I currently shoot a lot of 120 fps at 720 and Motor Cross Photography fans love it!

    @adrinathegreat3095 6 лет назад

    Great review, I thought the 120 fps looked far better than you said, as for guessing which lady was recorded with which camera is anyone's guess unless one of the cameras had a horrible hue to it or was out of focus.
    It'd have looked the same if it was recorded with a cheap point and shoot in 1080p.
    Perfect light and fixed focus can be done with almost any old digital camera.
    The test would have been better if it wasn't in a controlled environment

I want to use 4K to get two shots for one angle to compliment a 1080p production. It's this right now or save up for 16months for a sony fs7. But I think this new tech gives me what I need for $900 without having to spend money on any new lens!!! It will carry me over for a while! Till I can upgrade to a more profession video camera.

    I almost ordered an FZ1000 when it came out, but figured it was only a matter of time before Sony came back at Panasonic with a newer version of the FZ1000's closet rival, the RX10. Apparently an RX20 is about to come out with 4K, constant f2.8, and various other stuff. Would you have an opinion regarding the RX20? If the FZ1000 is still better overall I'll get that. Thanks!

    • @MaksimYuryev
      @MaksimYuryev  10 лет назад

      The RX20 will be a minor update to the RX10 with 4k and X-AVC codec (which is nice) but the FZ1K has the same 100mbps codec as the GH4 which is also good. The RX20 won't have S-Log and will also have a 30min. time limiter. The other thing is the FZ1K is $899 and the RX20 will most likely be $1300 so that's one thing to think about. IF your shooting with other Sony cameras then RX20 would make sense to match the codec's and if your shooting Panasonic then of course the FZ1K to match codecs and color profile. If this is your main video camera then it's a tougher choice. If you need F2.8 at 200mm then RX20 as the FZ1k only holds the F2.8 to about 130mm. If money is an issue than the FZ1K is $400 less. Hope that helps!

    • @JoeSzilagy
      @JoeSzilagy 10 лет назад

      Max Yuryev Thank you Max! If that's pretty much it for the RX20, I guess I'll likely get the FZ1000 after all. Here (in Toronto) it can be found for around $950 or slightly less. I may just wait a few weeks to see if it's even lower as Christmas approaches. Thanks again!
